    Wesley was reportedly the plan even before we gave B the interm GM label next to his name. Also I think Kevin drafted Claver.
    Add jeff pendagraph and dante cunninghman to the good picks since they were second rounders and are still in the league l

    Also noone really knows why we drafted Smith over Faried but McMillian was really high on Smith.

    Well, if Nate wanted Nolan, he was high on something.

    Buchanan is another of our secret double agents that are sent out to blow up the competition.

    Don't know. Can't think of anything good either.

    He got rid of Raymond Felton and the Greek he traded him for was part of the deal that brought TRob here as well as the Gerald Wallace deal that turned into Lillard. Credit where credit is due.

    What was his actual job? I thought he was a scout, not a decision maker?

    So...not a decision maker. Why blame him for GM and McMillan mistakes?

    actually he shared it with Larry Miller and seemed reluctant about doing it at all.

    Buchanan was the interim GM and Miller was the president.
